Teaming modes

FEC/GEC Mode

The FEC/GEC mode is similar to the Link Aggregation\LACP(802.3ad) mode in that

all adapters in the team need to be congured to receive packets for the same MAC

address, however, it does not provide LACP or marker protocol support. Basically, this

mode is a light version of the Link Aggregation\LACP(802.3ad) mode.

The FEC/GEC mode supports load balancing and failover for both outbound and in-

bound trac.

Link Aggregation\LACP(802.3ad) Mode

This mode supports link aggregation and conforms to the IEEE 802.3ad (LACP) speci-

cation. All adapters in the team are congured to receive packets for the same MAC

address. In this mode, at least one of the link partners must be in active mode.
